    The ideal is to reach the sanctuary from the grass path. Really fun and varied by bike, before the final pettate towards the sanctuary which is not trivial. The sanctuary is a hidden jewel and appears suddenly, perfectly nestled in the rocky ridge

    The Sanctuary of S. Biagio is a rock church near Ostuni, founded in the 12th century by Basilian monks. It is dedicated to the first patron saint of the city, whom the faithful honor on February 3 with a procession. The church is in ruins but an atmospheric place to visit with the scenery along the path extending down to the sea.
